---------------

From a time no longer remembered,

the dream appeared and became the ideal sword for many

but one day the dream met a Finch during their travels

and established a Terrarium

A home

They built many rooms,

it has many windows and doors

it has many inhabitants

The dream would wander from place to place finding more terrariums

but the dream would always return home.

Home where their Finch was.

where they would sit quietly

told gently that rather than a sword

they would rather have someone to embrace.

to know them

to hold them gently instead of firmly

to nest and asked

with respect to your defenses will you let me in?

I would like to experience the you hidden away

and not only must I see your joys but your pain too

I know you are a private person

but please let me in beloved.

So the Dream did.
